Nanoparticle capping agent controlled electron-transfer dynamics in ionic liquids.

We report a change in mechanism of oxidation of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) with the molecular weight of the poly(ethylene) glycol (PEG) capping agent. Characterisation of the modified nanoparticles is undertaken using Dynamic Light Scattering and UV-Vis Spectroscopy. Electrochemical analyses reve...
